Q6: HOW DO I DETERMINE THE VERSION NUMBER OF THE LINK MANAGER
PROTOCOL (LMP)?
A6: In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, on the Hardware tab, in the Device Proper-
ties section, the seventh entry provides Link Manager Protocol version number
information.
The eighth entry contains the Link Manager Protocol sub-version number information,
if appropriate.
Q7: HOW DO I FIND INFORMATION ABOUT THE BLUETOOTH HARDWARE
ATTACHED TO MY COMPUTER?
A7: In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, select the Hardware tab
Q8: INTERNET CONNECTION SHARING DOES NOT WORK:
A8: This occurs because Internet Connection Sharing was enabled when Bluetooth
was installed (this is a Microsoft Windows behavior and is considered proper opera-
tion).
To enable Internet Connection Sharing:
1. Disable Sharing for the Ethernet adapter:
a) Windows Control Panel > Network and Dial-up Connections
b) Right-click “Local Area Connection,” select Properties, and then select the
Sharing tab.
c) Clear the check box for “Enable Internet Connection Sharing for this connec-
tion,” and then click OK.
2. Re-enable Sharing for the Ethernet adapter; repeat Step 1.c.), and select (check)
the sharing box.
If you are prompted to select an adapter, select “Bluetooth network adapter.” (This
option is not displayed unless more than one adapter is available.)
If asked to restart the computer, do so.
Q9: HOW DO I TEST A NETWORK ACCESS CONNECTION?
A9: If the client is hardwired to the LAN, unplug the hardwired connection to ensure
that the test checks the wireless connection rather than the hardwired connection.
If the server has access to the Internet, open a browser on the client and connect to
the World Wide Web.
You may also Ping the server from the DOS prompt.
Q10: WHY DO I GET AN UNKNOWN PORT MESSAGE WHEN I ATTEMPT TO USE
A BLUETOOTH SERIAL PORT?
A10: The “Unknown Port” error message usually means an attempt was made to
connect a port that was in use.
Additional Bluetooth Serial Ports can be added if they are required.
Q11: BLUETOOTH HEADSET DOES NOT ALWAYS FUNCTION UNDER WIN98:
A11: Windows 98 cannot convert audio files with the extension m3u (e.g., myfile.m3u)
into the Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) audio format used by Bluetooth headsets; this
is a limitation of Windows 98.
